Is it possible to gradually change the human condition via transhumanism to make for a better world?

What is the meaning of life?

What is the capacity for humans to evolve further and is it necessary to increase the rate at which we evolve?

My hope is that this thread will only be addressed by those who would like to legitimately discuss the topic and it will not turn into a pissing contest over religion or politics, at least not right away!
I have a question, more of a request for a clarification, and i'm only asking it because i'm assuming that you're a proponent of evolution.

My query is that:
If evolution is the change of a species that is necessary to their survival, and if man descends from apes, then why are there still original species without these acquired traits?
